A southbound Metropolitan Line train approaches the Croxleyhall Farm Bridge from the Rickmansworth direction (and for those who collect such things, no, I did not get its number!). These tracks are shared between London Underground and Chiltern Railways. The London Underground trains go to and from Amersham and Baker Street and Aldgate, and the Chiltern Line trains run from London Marylebone to and from Aylesbury. The tracks leading to the right in front of the train go to Watford along a short section of track that is only used for early morning and late evening train positioning movements, forming one side of the "Croxley Triangle".
